I'm just waiting for FX to start making them semi auto and these issues will be fixed, my new FX has the same issue with the magazine some times, great video.
Hi Ernest, My new Impact is the 1st and Only rifle that has ever experienced non stop mag-jamming issues, and it's maddening. I've used 3 FX high cap mags, and experience the issue with all of them. They insert fine, but, periodically get stuck / unable to manually remove. *It has happened more when pellets are still in the mag vs. the mag being completely empty - I tried a bit of process of elimination.. Tools are always required. *sigh* Not only has it happened with the initial / OEM setup, but continued after I modified the cocking setup with Saber Tactical's Ambidextrous Cocking Block / left-hand conversion. [I used the stock / oem measurements - it still happened - then I extended the probe out a full turn, and the jamming is still an issue] Again, it's intermittent / random and almost always happened when outside - in the woods - with no tools around. Go figure. Ammo used so far - .22 cal: JSB Hades, JSB Diabolo, and Crosman Premier [nothing crazy or exotic] This should not be happening.. Any ideas? [I'm sick of constantly tearing into a brand new rifle to fix or try to fix issues that it came with - from the factory] Thanks in advance for any advise/help/thoughts! Sam -
I'd send it back! I might be something simple your just not seeing or it might be a rat's nest that will haunt you for years and at the price if an impact and the quality of an FX I'd have it done by someone that dose this for a living but that's just me and mine is still on back order form Utah airguns... hope you get is solved either way, and if its something simple pleas let me know just incase I have the same problem I know it sucks to be with out... but if that's what needs to be then that's what needs to be done. 🥃cheers🍻
@@jackdaniels7913 I hear you.. I really do.. And this: "I'd have it done by someone that does this for a living": That's why I got the rifle in the first place. I was led to 'trust' in FX. [FX manufactures these guns - for a living - yet this is what I get] BTW, My Dream Tac Compact has extremely visible tool marks [scratches and swirls] all over both sides of the action! The metal was never finished - just top coated.. I'm Not impressed.. So that said.. I'm not very 'trusting' at this point in time, to where I can expect to have the gun 'repaired properly'.. **sigh** And my Dream Tac Compact showed up with zero psi in the cylinder, several air leaks: Tank, 1 gauge, and there's issues w/ the gauge[s] as well as a temperamental AMP regulator - actually on Both guns.. So yeah.. I'd just like to find out what "I" can do to fix the issue[s] I trust my own mechanical ability/skills/work much more than I do others.. And amazingly, these issues on Both rifles seemed to pass right by 2 different Extremely Popular Sellers! That has me bummed out also.. Love/Hate Relationship with this rifle right now for sure.. Thanks! And Yes, I'll be sure to pop back in here, and let you know as soon as I / we can get some answers and get it all figured out. Sam -
@@DirtyDovi that sucks! I'm waiting for mine to show up at Utah airguns... I live in Alaska so the shipping is anything but fast "lol" I'm with you on believing the manufacturer was top shelf but I haven't had my hands on one yet at all so this is really sad to hear almost dressing! I really hope they get there shit together but that's wishful thinking... I really hope you get it figured out soon and I hope its something that dosen't cost an arm and a leg after all we have given up a left testicles just to get are grubby little fingers on one in the first place.
I put it all together. Put a pellet in load it all the way in , pull barrel out and look to see if the pellet has gone past the port with this new probe kit I don’t have to worry about the holes lining up on the probe , much easier I find 🤘
thanks earnest i had to do it this way as well because the 44.4 to 44. 7 mesurement from back didnt work for my mag so i just did it to cycle and fit my mag
Sir, I'm using fx impact mk2, .22 cal, 600mm barrel with superior liner, recently i have installed power plenum and duel flow port. i want to shoot jsb 18.13 gr pellet & jsb knockout 25.39 gr slugs too. but i don't have any idea about right regulator pressure to shoot both pellet & slug. in this regard i need your support. what regular pressure you prefer for me. please note that I'm not using any pin prope. i'm eagerly waiting for your response
Okay Ernest so this probe looks like the new power kid for slugs??? so the deal is, that using a Superior liner in the barrel, all though it should be shooting both pellets and slugs, it needs this new Power kid with the new porbe in order to have complete power, efficiency and accuracy???
My pinprobe don't seem to be long enough to push the slug into the rifling, There seems to be another 6mm in the barrel before the slug fits snug, There is no resistance at the breach end of the barrel loading the slug but if I push the slug manually the slug then fits snug, But is quite loose for the first 32mm,
Thank you to Ernest Rowe and his 2-year-old video. I just recently purchased a M3 .25 from SPAW and had purchased the slug power kit for it and was charged 250$ for then to install it correctly for them to not install it correctly and send it to me for me to figure it out. They never seated it properly and there for they just forced it to feed into the mag and chewed chunks out. Smdh! I wouldn't recommend them to anyone.
